LIFE BEYOND EARTH
Made with Revenant
An award winning short film
in collaboration with SOM, ESA and MIT exploring the
future of living on the moon and space travel.
BLMRS, together with the talented team at Revenant, were tasked with bringing the creative vision of Skidmore, Owings and Merrill (SOM) and the European Space Agency (ESA) to life through compelling visual effects and creative story telling. Grounded in reality, science and ideas of tomorrow.
Life Beyond Earth was created to evoke a sense of hope, wonder and the excitement about the future of space travel. Our team was supported by an incredible group of architects, engineers and astronauts throughout the process to help guide the most realistic depiction possible.
What would it mean to return to the Moon today?
To leave more than flags and footsteps.
- Dr. Jeffrey A. Hoffman
Former NASA Astronaut
No science fiction here. Every decision in the film was rooted in the reality of research, science and possibilities. All visual effects where treated from the ground up with realism in mind. Conveying truth and fact in what this future could be, not just hopes and dreams.

Life Beyond Earth served as a companion piece to the large installation at the 17th Venice Architecture Biennale. The film aimed to help envision a future where living on the Moon was more reality than fiction.
